3.1 Connectors and LEDs
No. CON / LED State Description
1 WAN Network interface for receiving alarm messages from Internet. Other
services may run on this interface depending on settings.
2 LAN Network interface for WEB interface. Other services may run on this
interface depending on settings.
3 PWR On Device is powered from external power supply.
Off Device is turned off. No power from external power supply.
4 CSE On Central Station Equipment connected to alarm messages distributor.
Off Central Station Equipment not connected to alarm messages distribu-
tor.
5 ALM On Alarm messages interface is active.
Off Alarm messages interface is not active.
6 MSG On Alarm messages interface is receiving message.
Off Alarm messages interface is waiting for next message.
7 DC External power supply connector: 12 V DC, 2A, + inside, - outside.
8 RS232 Serial port for connecting to Central Station Equipment.
9 SD Micro SD card slot.
10 USB USB Type C port for connecting to a Central Station Equipment.
The device has two network interfaces: WAN and LAN. The WAN interface is used to receive alarm
messages from the Internet, while the LAN interface is used for accessing the device’s web interface and
other services. Both interfaces can be configured to use DHCP or static IP addresses.
Left LED on each interface indicates the network connection and speed (orange for 10 Mbps, green
for 100 Mbps, off for no connection).
Right LED indicates network activity (flashing when data is being transmitted).
3.1.2 SD Card
When no SD card is detected, the device will not boot and will indicate missing or damaged SD card by
flashing CSE, ALM and MSG LEDs. The SD card is used to store accounts and receoved alarm messages.
It is recommended to use a high-quality SD card with a minimum capacity of 16 GB. The SD card should
be formatted in FAT32 file system. The device will automatically create a directory structure on the SD
card when it is first used.

3 INSTALLATION 3.2 Connecting the receiver
In this scheme, the receiver is connected to the Central Station Equipment via RS232 port. The WAN
interface is connected to the Internet via dedicated router and secured using NAT and firewall filtering.
The LAN interface is connected to a local network and used for local web interface, sending mail messages,
synchronizing receiver date and time via network time server and domain name resolution.
This setup allows for secure communication between the receiver and the Central Station Equipment,
as well as access to the device’s web interface from the local network.
• For Central Station Equipment that supports RS323 connection, this is the recommended connec-
tion scheme.
• For Central Station Equipment that does not support RS232 connection, the USB Type C port can
be used instead.
• For traffic intensive applications, it is recommended to use LAN interface for Central Station Equip-
ment connection, while WAN interface is used for receiving alarm messages from the Internet.
Both RS232 and USB Type C works as a serial port, so the same settings can be used for both
connections with data rate from 9600 to 115200 bps, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit and no flow control.

3.2 Connecting the receiver 3 INSTALLATION
Second connection scheme is used when the maximum number of accounts is required. In this case, the
receiver is connected to the Central Station Equipment via RS232, USB Type C port or LAN interface.
The WAN and LAN interfaces are both connected to the Internet via office router with NAT Load
Balancing. To receive alarm messages using single port on office router with NAT Load Balancing,
please refer to your router documentation for instructions on how to configure it. This setup allows
for maximum number of accounts to be used and intensive traffic, as the receiver can handle efficiently
multiple connections from different alarm panels.
• For Central Station Equipment that supports RS323 connection, this is the recommended connec-
tion scheme.
• For Central Station Equipment that does not support RS232 connection, the USB Type C port can
be used instead.
• For traffic intensive applications, it is recommended to use LAN interface for Central Station Equip-
ment connection, while WAN interface is used for receiving alarm messages from the Internet.
Both RS232 and USB Type C works as a serial port, so the same settings can be used for both
connections with data rate from 9600 to 115200 bps, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit and no flow control.
